Robert always had such a contagious smile and I will forever remember him as a student of mine who went out of his way to show he cared. Memories of Robert in my science class are ones that stand out in my mind when looking back at my 13 years at Manheim Township High School. Robert was so excited to see me when I came to the football games and would go out of his way to express his thanks for me being in attendance. I am truly sorry for your loss and will keep your family in my thoughts through this difficult time.
